Hello, today I've been getting back pain occasionally, it feels like it's in the muscles and it's mainly in the middle. Also, I've been getting pain in my jaw( very ocassionally), the sides of my neck and in my shoulder, mainly the left. Occasionaly I've been having chest pain in the sides which I think are either due to tension or trapped wind :whistles:. I'm so stressed at the moment and I just feel achey and on edge. Just now I've got a weird cold, burning feeling in my stomach but it could be because I'm hungry.
Every time this happens I get really panicky because I think that it's an oncoming heart attack, please reassure me, I'm only 16!

I could have written this myself!!

I've had all of those symptoms, especially the jaw and middle of my chest...not a good combo for an anxiety sufferer.

My chest I put down to the tension and I did have a lot of gas buildup as I was burping all the time.

The jaw, which I still get occaisionally, I think is caused by clenching my teeth, espically at night when I don't realize I'm doing it.

I used to get all kinds of stomach pain, the feeling at the top like I was hungry, but I wasn't. It would burn, ache you name it, I've had it! A lot of it was indigestion and heartburn due to acid building up. Ginger tea is really good or I too Zantac too.

The more I accepted that it was nothing sinister, I've noticed the symptoms start to go. I still get them every once in a while but it's not nearly as much as it was.

Just hang in there, remember to breathe and just accept that it hurts because of tension and it'll help you relax more. :)

I have those symptoms daily. Its a mix of stress and having to sit at a desk all day for me!

I Have this at the moment, and like you constantly concerned, but possibly less so now others are posting they have had these too. Mine is pain in my neck leftside, especially after eating, really sharp then just aches, pain at the back of my ears, muscles cramps in my jaw and chin and feel like my teeth are not fitting together, out of sync somehow. Also dull aches near my collarbone. Must be anxiety, keep thinking its either trapped wind/start of a cold.

I hope you feel better soon but as other people are commenting must be anxiety symptom but I am not a professional so if you are still really unsure visit your GP to put your mind at rest?
